Default Replacement Vacuum Line

Does anyone know the part number, or a replacement, for the vacuum line that goes from the passenger side of the plenum to the HVAC? It has a rubber connector and a hard line to the driver side where it connects to the cruise control and HVAC I think.

It is the vacuum connection next to the fuel pressure regulator on the passenger side of the intake plenum.

I broke it when I was replacing the fuel injectors. It was pretty brittle.

been there, done that - i'm not sure that you can purchase the factory parts here. i broke several sections on my 85 last year, and replaced them with standard rubber and hard plastic vacuum tubing, and miscellaneous tubing connectors purchased from autozone. worked out okay without issues. hope this helps...

You can either buy new plastic tubing from Advance Auto, (it comes in a roll of 3 feet ) or just use rubber vacuum hose. They also have the rubber connectors for the plastic tube..WW
